Dating a Very Good Looking Person? Get a Handle on Your Insecurity

It is safe to say that Hollywood A-List actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will never have this problem. They are both extremely gorgeous people and they have the votes from around the world from gossip websites to well-known magazines to prove it.

Both of these beautiful people wouldn’t be found on an internet dating site if they were single! They’d have potential dates lining up around the block; such is the life of a beautiful celebrity.

Good looking people get attention, there’s no getting away from that. And when two good looking people are dating, the attention drawn their way doubles. So what would happen if you were to date a drop dead gorgeous someone? Would your insecurities surface or would you cope just fine?

I’m an average looking gal. My friends describe me as “cute in a girl next door kinda way”. And most of the men I’ve dated are average looking as well, with one exception. This guy was so good looking I sometimes wondered what the heck he was doing with me! Women and men both drooled over this guy’s appearance.

But when we were out together, people looked at him, not at me. It wasn’t something I was used to. We didn’t date for long and although I was sad when we broke up, I was happy the relationship was over. I was simply too insecure to date someone better looking than myself.

In retrospect his looks should not have been the important part of the relationship. He, like so many others, was just looking for someone to love, and he liked me for me. I was the problem; or rather my attitude. I’d found the guy with the movie star looks, but now I didn’t know what to do with him. I was unable to just enjoy the moment, which was too bad because he was a fun guy and full of practical jokes.

As I have grown older, I realize how silly I was then and that looks don’t really matter. It is the first thing that we see when meeting someone but once you talk the personality and things you have in common are going to be the things that take you to the next level.

I am happy to say that I have gotten another chance. The guy I am seeing now is even more handsome than the one before. This time, when we walk down the street holding hands and the girls swoon, I smile and think about how handsome he is inside and out. There is nothing wrong with dating someone extremely good-looking, but you just have to make sure you are secure.
